I think it's a good sign to quit when I start playing games on my iPad instead of using my kindle app. I was just bored. I can see that it was going to be a sweet book that had some hot scenes, but I just didn't feel it. The 4 year old was the best part, and he really wasn't all that present. Both the h and H were ok, but I didn't like them enough for me to be invested in their story or really feel their connection. I'm sure others would like this low key, sweet, sexy story -- but I'm

Love on a Summer Night is the fourth in Zoe York's Pine Harbour series. Each book can be read as a standalone since it focuses on different couples (which is good since this was the first book I've read by Zoe York).

Zander Minelli has about 6 months left before he is about to retire from 20 years in the military. He knows it his time. He is getting closer and closer to 40 years old and he feels like he SHOULD be putting down

This was so good! Faith is a widowed single mother to an adventurous 5 year old boy. She's a writer and one night, she goes to the bakery to do some writing. She strikes up a conversation with a sexy, tattooed biker. Zander has been in the military for twenty years and is set to retire and move back to his hometown. He has 6 months left on his contract. He has a week leave and heads to Pine Harbour for a visit. When he sees Faith in the bakery, he is instantly attracted to her and can tell there ...more

I'll be doing a FULL review of this flawlessly endearing story soon but just know ... If and when you read this story, have tissues and extra undies available !!

It's time for my FULL REVIEW :)

Zander Minelli has spent the last 20 years serving his country. It's time to retire. It's time to settle down and grow some roots. But there's a problem...he's not really that guy. The guy who lets roots grow. So he's fidgety a

This is the fourth title in the Pine Harbour series, each of which has featured the wonderful combination of small town romance with sexy contemporary style. They are all standalone novels featuring different couples getting their happy endings. Zander's brother Rafe is married to Olivia, his sister Dani is with long time friend Jake, his good friend Ryan has partnered with movie star actress Hope and he couldn't be happier for them, even if he sometimes feels a pang of loneliness. A career army ...more

So disappointed with this. I wanted more for the big bad military guy Zander whom we heard so much about since book #1. I hated how his story was just a big flat MEH.

Other than that incident at 81%, everything was about nothing. I would've even settled for a secret jilted ex-girlfriend drama thrown in somewhere maybe. It was that boring.

Here's hoping for a better story for Dean next.

"Haven’t you ever met someone and just wanted to know more about them”

Love on a Summer Night is book 4 in the Pine Harbour series by Zoe York and is Zander Minnelli’s story. Zander is the oldest of the Minnelli clan hot, sexy and a few tattoos for good measure. He may look like your typical bad boy, but he is far from it. Something that widowed single mother Faith Davidson, who is ready to start dating again is about to disc

This is one of my favourite small town series – Pine Harbour – and this is the fourth book. Although not strictly necessary that the previous books need to be read, I would strongly advise so you are aware of what has happened with the other characters mentioned and who form part of this small town.

Faith Davidson is a single widowed Mom to four year old Eric, and is gradually pulling her life into shape with the help of her Mother. She

Zander Minelli is the perfect man. He appears to be a bad boy with his tattoos and his bike and his knowledge of killing people with any known weapon and his big bad career army persona. But where Faith Davidson is concerned, he is the sweetest, most caring, patient, understanding, and giving man. And he cooks like only the son of Italian parents who own a restaurant could. Faith Davidson lives with her mom and 4 year old son born after his father died almost 5 years ago. However, Faith has not ...more

Review of ARC, kindly provided by the author for an honest review.

Wow, another emotion packed love story by Zoe York! I have been waiting to hear Zander's story since he was brought up earlier in the series. A tall, dark, and handsome, bad boy, biker, soldier-all wrapped in one glorious package. What's not to love?
As Zander prepares to say goodbye to military life, he had an unsettled feeling about going back home to Pine Harbour and setting up a permanent home. That is, until he makes an unplan

Another cheesy cover, but Love on a Summer Night's a fun read from Zoe York about a "bad boy" who's really a nice guy, in this case a tatted, soon-to-be-ex-military biker who's admitted he prefers to travel and doesn't want to settle down. But lest ye expect kidnappings et cetera, this is a realistic small-town romance, not a gritty, dark one, and it turns out Zander enjoys"showing up" as a family man a lot more than he thought, he's a standup guy for widowed mother and writer Faith. I loved tha ...more

I think this has to be my favorite Zoe York book so far! Zander is a bad boy, biker dude, about to be retired soldier. He's returning home for a week to start getting things prepared for when he officially retires from the Army in 6 months. He runs in to the beautiful heroine Faith. A single mom who's adventure loving husband passed away several years ago. Unfortunately, she hasn't yet healed from his unexpected death.

I definitely think every woman needs a Zander in her life. All tatted up, motorcycle riding bad boy on the outside. Heart of gold, kind, loving, and a hell of a cook on the outside. *sigh*

Zander's been out of Pine Harbour for a while, but he's ready to say goodbye to military life and settle down in his hometown. Just 6 months to go, but now he's home for a two week visit and to try and figure out what he wants to do with the rest of his life. Meeting someone as wonderful as Faith was never in t

Zoe York is known for signature stories that are sensitive, passionate and emotion charged. All of those words describe Love On a Summer Night. This novel is standard Zoe York with a little bit more edge. Zander is more tense, moody and has a lot more baggage than the average hero in one of Ms. York's reads. The twists and turns he has traveled may have something to do with that. The heroine Faith is a nurturer that is floundering and trying to find a new direction. I received an ARC of Love on ...more

A dude that can speak to weapons and action is a dream for writer Faith. Throw in the fact that he's super sexy and he's the total package. Faith is looking for stability and Zander might be a risk but temptation is too sweet to be denied. Good story and development :)

A few days ago I was scrolling down my Kindle looking for something to read when I saw this book, and realized that I've never finished it LOL so I restarted and finished it in one sitting

but anyway,

this book basically has everything I love:
- hero in uniform (Zander's a soldier), heat (*FANS SELF*),
- cute kid (Faith's son is SO ADORABLE; I love all the scenes with Zander and him),
- and slow burn romance (we even got LDR scenes which is great!).

Oh, did I mention that Faith's a bestselling au

Love on a Summer Night by Zoe York is the fourth book in the Pine Harbour Series.

Zander Manelli is the kind of man that has spent the majority of his life blazing his own path without being compelled to announce it to all. Though he enlisted in the military right out of high school, his off time has been spent sauntering on his motorcycle wherever in the world his attention beckoned at that time. To call him a wanderer or nomad would indicate that he lacked purpose for his act. I get th

This is such a wonderful series for the small town romance fan, especially for those who like it to be a little bit on the hot and steamy side! Zoe York has a talent for tugging at our heart strings as well as giving us a few things to make us blush. :) Zander was just the guy to take care of both. After a long military career he is now ready to settle down for good in Pine Harbour. He's a little uncertain about leaving his life in the military because he's always enjoyed his freedom. But, life ...more

As I've said elsewhere, Zoe York is a one-click, go-to author for me. Her Wardham and Pine Harbour series always keep me coming back for more!

The story between Faith and Zander (and Eric) is heart-warming, while also peppered with genuine, real-life concerns. Faith is a single parent, and because of that, has to be vigilant when it comes to guarding her son's sweet spirit. She puts parenting first, well ahead of any dating pursuits. Nevertheless, her career as a writer brings her face

One of those stories where it's me, not you kind of break up.

I'm sure there's plenty to love here. Unfortunately it was so boring it wasn't funny. At all. I skim read, I yawned, I belly hopped from giddiness when it ended. No, not because I loved it, but because I was now free from that boring, boring, boring book.


The book is set in Canada, and you barely realise it. It is set in a small community and you barely realise it. He is a soldier and you barely realise it. I think you get my meaning. T

Never say never. Especially not to a determined bad boy.

Zander Minelli is exactly the wrong kind of man. He’s dark, dangerous, and knows far too much about sawed-off shotguns.

Faith Davidson finds him irresistible. The widowed single mother knows she should dip her toe back in the dating pool with someone solid and dependable. Definitely no tattoos. But every time she looks up, the brooding soldier is watching her, and she can’t help but wonder what it

What a sweet romantic Story. I loved everything of this book.

Zander was so sweet and caring about Faith and her needing to get over her own issues. But he also didn't wait for her to come around.

So if you in the mood for a nice romantic story then pick up this one.
